Certified Wedding Planner

Tori did my children’s B’nai Mitvah last August. We were extremely happy with the whole process. Tori went above and beyond to help me get what I needed to make this day so special. From the Friday night services, the morning brunch and of course the FABULOUS evening soirée. No detail was over-looked. She even reminded me of time-frames and due dates. She’s VERY detail oriented. We got so many compliments on everything.

Wow! 25+ years of planning events and I still love it!  The passion and excitement I feel when I work with my clients is even stronger than before. Planning a customized wedding with creative personal touches makes each celebration unique, so I always look forward to each event with great anticipation.   

Reflecting on how my love affair with Hawaii began back in 1978,  when my adoring grandparents took me to Oahu (we stayed at the Kahala!) and Kona (we stayed at the Mauna Kea Resort!), I fondly remember my instant connection with Hawaii's energy. Dedication, hard work, passion, commitment, investments, education, and nurtured relationships have made it possible for Celebrations by Tori to survive and thrive in an ever-changing industry since 1998, creating unique milestone events and celebrations for people from all over the world (with whom I am still in touch!).

You may know me as Hawaiian Island Wedding Planners, Hawaii Weddings by Tori Rogers, or Celebrations by Tori.  Regardless of my name, I have always maintained the same core values and have worked diligently to maintain an environment rich with kindness, generosity, transparency, creativity,  integrity, honesty, and service.    

My passion for event planning began at the age of 9, when I planned a surprise anniversary party for my parents. Those exceptional organizational skills and creative energy continued through my teen and young adult years, when I planned multiple conventions for teens across the Western United States, learning at an early age about the hospitality industry.  Being the go-to person to plan parties, celebrations, and meetings for family and friends, even while I was involved with other careers (special education, educational therapy, retail, personal shopping, styling, merchandising & buying for boutiques) has always been a fun creative outlet. Event planning continues to been in my heart and soul, something I could always intuitively do, and the work I most enjoy.

 

As I am now well into adulthood (no comment!), I am proud that my commitment to excellence, professionalism, and ethics have earned me tremendous respect in the wedding industry, for which I am eternally grateful.  My Type-A organization skills, relaxed and calm vibe, appreciation for detail and aesthetics, and professional work ethic are apparently a rare find that set me apart from others in the industry. More importantly, this business has enabled me to develop and nurture thousands of connections with professionals and clients, establishing lifelong relationships.

As an expert in the industry, I have been featured in magazines, on various websites, and on television.

I have participated in Wedding of A Lifetime for Hawaii Bride and Groom Magazine several times,
where my services and the services of the involved venues and 
professionals were donated
to provide the best day ever for the lucky winners. I have done celebrity weddings, over the top

luxury weddings,  and simple weddings on the beach. What keeps this industry fun for me is sharing

my knowledge, experience and resources with YOU, and considering the best ways we can

prioritize and merge your story into your event details. Every celebration is a

collaboration of accomplished professionals who create a timeless experience exceeding

your expectations.


Your event is about the story you want to share with us all. 

What is YOUR  story and how can I help you share it?

Whether by email, text, phone, Skype or Zoom, let's connect to plan 

YOUR  fun and fabulous celebration! ​Contact Tori for a free consultation.
